Waves
It comes crashing in pushing you back down into your bed again
Your mind becomes a war, the blur of happiness is just a dream
Putting on your smile and trying to dance it away
Knowing it will make you cave in.
Your laying on your bed barely breathing and tears start to stream
You are just another sad teen
But there is no dark makeup, no screamo.
It comes in a different form.
It is born in your mind and can take over you anytime
It is a cloud that hovers and there is nowhere to cover
Sadness is your other lover.
